Reunited!

Judge Marvin and Lacey have been reunited, and it truly "feels so good"!  After the threat to Lacey in open court at the ICC on Tuesday, the written threats that Lacey has received at home in Glint, and the copy of one of the threats that was found in cupcake's pocket, Judge Marvin arranged a top secret mission to retrieve Lacey "to bring her here by my side where I can be sure that she is protected at all times."

One of the Judge's helicopters hovered over the courtyard of the Judge's and Lacey's home.  While snipers inside the whirlybird covered every direction, a rope ladder was lowered by the Judge himself.  Smiling happily at the surprise of seeing her beloved Master, Lacey climbed the rope.  Once safely inside the cabin, Lacey was wrapped in her Master's loving arms...or he was wrapped in hers....or both.

The helicopter landed at an undisclosed airport, where an unmarked Gulfstream G-5 was waiting to take the pair to the Netherlands.  A heavily armored limosine took the couple from the airport to an undisclosed hotel.  Wednesday morning, Judge Marvin was back on the bench, looking bright eyed and well-satisfied.  As the regular court reporter for the ICC is recording this case, Lacey is enjoying the chance to dabble with court room drawings while kneeling at Master's side on a large soft cushion, observing the proceedings.  The defense was shocked to see Lacey walk into the courtroom behind Judge Marvin, her freshly sharpened dagger strapped to her thigh.  Suddenly, the entire defense table seemed to be choking as they all reached for the water pitcher and plastic cups emblazoned with the ICC logo.

Once recovered from their surprise, the defense stated that they had finished their opening argument.  The rest of the day was filled with the prosecution presenting evidence and questioning witnesses.  At four pm, Judge Marvin called a halt to the day. 

Since Lacey hadn't visited the Netherlands before, Judge Marvin rented a tandem bicycle.  The rest of the afternoon was spent sight-seeing, with the bodyguards maintaining a watchful eye from a respectful distance.  After enjoying an alfresco dinner, the Judge and Lacey returned to the hotel for a satisfying treat.

Arguments are expected to continue today in the well-publicized case.  Both sides anticipate making closing statements on Friday morning, handing the case to the Judge for deliberation just before the lunch recess.

Judge Marvin's First Day at the ICC

Judge Marvin heard the opening statements today at the International Criminal Court (ICC) located in The Hague, Netherlands.  The prosecution laid the foundation for their case throughout the morning and most of the afternoon.  Judge Marvin called a brief recess before the drug cartel had their say, in which they stated that all of the charges were false, and that they were certain that Judge Marvin would immediately throw out the case, then softly added "if he ever wants to see Lacey again."

With that comment, Judge Marvin rose with an angry look on his face.  Declaring that the day's proceedings were finished and court would resume in the morning, he picked up the large gavel, banging it so hard that it split into pieces. Whirling, his robes flying out behind him, he purposefully strode into his chambers.  The chamber staff trembled as the saw the set to his jaw and the anger flashing in his eyes.  One member of the staff who asked for anonymity said, "He hung up his robe and didn't say word one to anyone.  He sat down behind his desk for just a few minutes before he picked up the telephone and punched a long stream of numbers.  He spoke softly into the phone, then replaced the receiver.  He stood up, grabbed his weapons, and walked out the door, his bodyguards running to catch up to him.  Where he was going is anyone's guess."

Where Is Master Marvin?

When in Glint alone, i am often asked "where is Master Marvin?" It makes me happy to know that my Master is adored and admired by many citizens of the PRG. He is an amazing person; intelligent, handsome, witty, full of fun and sexy as all get out! i am so fortunate to be owned by Him!

Back to the question of where Master is when He isn't at home in Glint. Master is a hard-working soul. If He isn't serving as a bodyguard for persons of note, He is passing judgment in courtrooms around the globe, and of course, He also is keeping an eye on His investments. For example, just recently Master had arranged another large shipment of fine Belgian chocolate to be delivered to His home in Switzerland (oh, it is a modest home, with only 32 bedrooms, 40 bathrooms, and a mere 30,000 square feet - just a chalet, really).

The seller attempted to swindle Master by replacing the chocolate bars with Peeps - you know, those brightly colored, sugar-coated marshmallow (sort of) things that are often in the shape of bunnies and chicks at Easter. YUCK! Peeps just can't compare with the rich, silky feel of chocolate melting on one's tongue...

Master was on the way to adjucate a court case, bringing along His favorite court reporter (that would be me). He had a feeling that the seller couldn't be trusted, so He took a slight detour to show up in the shipyard. There, He found the miscreant in the midst of his "Peeps for chocolate" switcheroo. Master strode up to the seller, and looked over His glasses at the swindler. The swindling seller took one look at Master with His hand on His whip, His sword at His side and His bow on His back, and immediately said that the container of Peeps was a gift to Master to go along with the chocolate.

With that settled, Master and i continued to His court appointment, which pitted two internationally known law firms against each other; Wee, Skrewem & Lie represented the plaintiffs, and Rippov & Runn represented the defendants. i'll tell that tale soon!

After the court case finished, Master and i hosted a huge outdoor party in Switzerland for the entire village. There were plenty of Peeps for everyone, and i discovered that Peeps are greatly improved by toasting over a fire. Perhaps Master will import some Peeps to Glint, after all, bunnies are our national animal!
